Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will be aware, the Government is committed to implementing a strategy for rural development on the basis of an inclusive approach to sustainable development, the integration of policies, a regional dimension and partnership with the rural community. I note that the group referred to by the Deputy was set up to lobby the Government on rural issues and will launch a report shortly. This report will be considered within the Department as appropriate.
